1 PSY101 Introduction to Psychology Frequently Asked Question s (FAQ S) What is Primary and secondary memory? Answer: Information that is perceived enters a short-tem store that they termed primary memory. Primary memory has a limited capacity; it can only contain a few items. However, retrieval from primary memory is quite easy. If a piece of information is present in primary memory, the person is almost certain to be able to recall it. While information is in primary memory, it may be rehearsed. Rehearsal has two functions. It tends to maintain information in primary memory, and it can cause transfer of the information to the long-term memory store (which Waugh and Norman called secondary memory). If information is not rehearsed, then it is lost (forgotten) form primary memory, perhaps without ever being transferred to secondary memory. Secondary memory differ form primary memory in several ways. It has an unlimited capacity. Waugh and Norman saw no reason not to assume that an essentially infinite amount of information could be stored in secondary memory. Also, there was no evidence that information is ever lost form secondary memory after it has been transferred there. However, retrieval from secondary memory is much more difficult than retrieval form primary memory. Even if a piece of information is present in secondary memory, we might not be ale to find it. What s the difference between a clinical psychologist and a psychiatrist? Answer: A clinical psychologist has a doctor of philosophy (PhD) or doctor of psychology (PsyD) degree in clinical psychology. These degrees involve 4-6 years of study and practical experience in graduate school and a year or more of full-time supervised experience in a clinical internship. A doctorate in psychology prepares the psychologist to understand psychological research, and conduct psychological assessment and psychotherapy, which requires a license. Currently, psychologists do not prescribe medication except in the state of New Mexico or when trained for certain federal programs, and only then with extensive additional training in psychopharmacology. A psychiatrist has a doctor of medicine (MD) or sometimes doctor of osteopathic medicine (D.O.) degree, and four years of supervised experience in a psychiatric residency. Medical school primarily prepares the psychiatrist to conduct physical exams and prescribe medical treatments. The psychiatric residency provides training in treating psychiatric disorders. 7- Can Psychologists predict fate or destiny?
2 Answer: This is not actually the case. Lay people have these views because they see that psychologists are capable of accurately telling what type of people others are, what they are capable of doing, what are their potentials and capacities etc. In reality, the case is different since psychologists can only predict not the destiny but the direction that one may adopt in future; psychologists can assess and predict personality and behavior because they get professional training for studying human behavior and that is why they can easily tell what type of a person one is, what might be his potentials, and how much he/ she is capable of performing certain tasks. 8- Can Psychologists give medicines? Answer: Not psychologist, but psychiatrists are the ones who prescribe medicine to the mentally ill patients, as they have a professional degree in medicine that authorizes them to prescribe medication. 9- What are the most prevalent models/approaches/perspectives of psychology? Answer: Biological Approach Psychodynamic Approach Behaviorist / Behavioral Approach Humanistic Approach Cognitive Approach 18- How would you define Experimental Research? Answer: In experimental research experimentation is used for studying a phenomenon. In an experiment the variable of interest (independent variable) is manipulated/ altered and the effect of this manipulation is studied. The main feature of experimentation is control; keeping all those variables and conditions under control, that can have an impact on the findings of the study i.e. variables that can interfere with the impact of the independent variable. 20- What is meant by cognitive development?

Both can provide therapy and counseling services for children and adults. Psychiatrists have a general medical degree and then advanced training in psychiatry. Psychiatrists can prescribe medication for people with serious mental illness, such as schizophrenia, whereas psychologists cannot. Clinical Psychologists have a MA, MSc or PhD in Psychology and advanced training in Clinical Psychology (Postgraduate Diploma in Clinical Psychology). As well as therapy and counseling services, clinical psychologists can do psychological testing with well-researched tests. Psychiatrists usually do not do psychological testing. 6- Can psychologists study mind or personality? Answer: This is the most frequent thought that comes into the mind of people who believe that psychologists are like magicians who can tell every thing about any person, his thoughts, feelings emotions, personality and all that other people cannot tell. This actually is not the case, because psychologists are not the magicians or something like that. They are professionals and their area of interest is basically the study of human behavior and mental processes; and this requires good
7 observation as well as good prediction. Another important thing that has to be kept in mind is that not all of those who have a degree in psychology can understand, explain, and predict the personality or behavior of a person, because it mainly requires not just good observation but proper training as well. 10- What are the main concerns of Gestalt psychology? Answer: An approach that focuses on the organization of perception and thinking in a whole sense rather than on the individual elements of perception. Instead of considering the individual parts that make up thinking, gestalt psychologists took the opposite track. They concentrated on how people consider individual elements as units or wholes. Their contribution in understanding the perceptual phenomena is very significant. 11- What is the main interest of psychodynamic school of thought? Answer: Psychodynamic School focuses on the unconscious forces that drive/ motivate human behavior. This approach concentrates on the belief that behavior is motivated by the inner forces, over which individuals have little control. Founded by the Viennese physician Sigmund Freud in early 1900s, proponents of psychodynamic perspective give importance to the inner unconscious experiences and the forces that led that behavior. Freud believed that unconscious determinants of behavior had a revolutionary effect on 20th century thinking, not just in psychology but also in related fields a well. Although many of the basic principles of psychodynamic thinking have been highly criticized, the model grown out of Freud s work has provided a way not only for treating mental disorders but also for understanding everyday phenomena such a prejudice and aggression. 12- What is the main focus of behavioristic school of thought? Answer: Behavioristic school of thought focuses on the overt observable behavior. The model emerged as a reaction to the earlier approaches that emphasized the significance of hidden, underlying, predetermined forces. The behaviorists suggest that observable behavior alone should be the main area of interest to psychology. 13- Explain the view of Humanistic school of thought? Answer: The psychological model, that suggests that people are in control of their lives. It is considered as one of the most recent approaches to psychology. This approach rejected the view, that predetermined, automatic, biological forces, unconscious processes or the environment determines behavior. On the contrary, it proposes that people themselves decide about their lives. A failure in being
8 capable of doing so leads to psychological problems. It also stresses the idea that people, by nature, tend to move towards higher levels of maturity and maximum potential. 14- What is the main focus of cognitive school of thought? Answer: The psychological model that focuses on how people know, understands, and thinks about the world. Main emphasis is on how people understand of the world, and their thinking, affects their responses; how it may lead to positive or negative psychological consequences, and even healthrelated outcomes. 15- What is view of biological school of thought? Answer: The psychological model that views behavior from the perspective of biological functioning, the role of brain, genes, neurotransmitters, endocrine glands etc. How the individual nerve cells are joined together, how the inheritance of certain characteristics from parents and other ancestors influences behavior, how the functioning of the body affects hopes and fears, what behaviors are due to instincts, and so on. Psychologists using the biological model view even more complex kinds of behaviors such as emotional responses e.g. anxiety, as having critical biological components. 16- How would you enlist main steps of scientific method?

Are Humans active or passive beings? What is more important in human development nature or nurture? Define depth perception? Answer: Depth perception is the perceptual tendency/ ability to see objects in three dimensions, although the image that falls on the retina of the eye is two-dimensional; thus enabling us to perceive distance. This sort of perception is largely due to the fact that we have two eyes which are slightly distant from each other, so the brain integrates the two slightly different images and combines them into one consolidated view; However the differences in images or Binocular Disparity is not ignored by the brain.
